We are given the following expression


9x+x-4x+x

We are asked to simplify the expression by combining the like terms

Let's combine the like terms step by step


\begin{gathered} 9x+x-4x+x \\ 9x+x+x-4x \\ 9x+2x-4x \\ 11x-4x \\ 7x \end{gathered}

Therefore, the correct option is A.

The simplified form of the expression is 7x.
